Best NBA Bets Today | March 28
P.J. Washington Over 5.5 First Quarter Points (+110)
The Hornets have struggled this season and are relying heavily on Washington to provide scoring as of late. Washington is averaging 5.7 points per game in the first quarter this season, and he can hit the over in this game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Miami Heat vs. Toronto Raptors Over 220 (-115)
The total is set at 220, which seems a little sharp, but that doesn’t factor in where Miami has outscored its projected team totals, especially on the road where they get shorted a lot. With Toronto’s and Miami’s desperation to climb out of the Play-In Tournament, over 220 is a solid bet. You cannot overstate the importance of these teams getting over this little hill here and into a more definitive playoff spot.
Dejounte Murray Under 28.5 Points + Rebounds + Assists (-115)
The Atlanta Hawks are playing the Cleveland Cavaliers, and Cleveland will win this game on the strength of more of a defensive effort. Murray is averaging nearly 31 points + rebounds + assists per game this season, but the Cavaliers are the worst matchup in the NBA for over props.
New Orleans Pelicans +8.5 (-110)
While Golden State has the potential to be one of the best teams on any given night, the Pelicans have been playing better lately, and they can keep this game close. The Pelicans are coming off a big win over the Los Angeles Clippers, and they will be able to carry that momentum into this game against the Warriors.
